What scientific fact blows your mind the most?
-
Discovery a truth of the universe is not going to affect the truth of the universe.
You're appearing to claim something nonsensical. The sort of wow-bang nonsense one reads about in pop-science magazines.

For the sake of discussion, let's say on the one hand a magic man intelligently designed life and all that. And on the other hand we have it arise and evolve over the course of billions of years of random atomic interactions and genetic mutations. I honestly find the second one far more amazing, wondrous, amazing, and mind blowing.

Awesome!

15 years away from a useful result

Unrelated: Anyone want to hang out? I'm planning a party. Should be enough space for about 400 people.

BEHOLD THE CUBE PLANE

No where near perfect mass conversion....
Max theoretical mass-energy conversion efficiency is under 1%
-
Wait what

Infinity and Black Hole
-
a fun fact: for the most efficient mass energy conversion, you need a huge spin black hole (preferably naked). Then you can get about 42% conversion. (there was a minute physics video about it i think)
-
Fancier or more efficient?
-
Holy shit lol. This is amazing!!!
-
Not just that, it's twice the amount!

Gravitational time dilation is an effect of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. Places with stronger gravity would then have time pass more slowly compared to earth. The opposite is also true.

The label 'homo sapiens' for our species.

(I'm going to abrasively emphasize the conjunctions more, because I feel they're being glossed over)
IF the truths of our universe are completely mathematically and axiomatically bound, then any proof derived within it might have a chance of upsetting a given axiom given the either incomplete or inconsistent nature of mathematics as declared by Gödel.
I'm NOT saying the universe IS mathematically bound. I actually believe that maths merely describes our reality at varying scales.

that's still waaayyyy more efficient than coal
